Medical Malpractice Attorney in Bozeman
Mistakes happen all the time in our day-to-day lives. But unfortunately, some may have more devastating effects than others. Take, for example, a case of medical malpractice that leads to serious injuries to a patient or even death.
When that happens, we usually come in to look into the circumstances that led to the mistake in the first place. If we establish that the error happened due to negligence, the next thing we'll do is try and find a way to compensate the patient for their injuries and losses.
While no financial compensation may be enough to reverse the effects of some of these mistakes, it allows the patient to feel whole again. The compensation can also help take care of various bills that might emerge now or later after the mistake has occurred.
However, obtaining compensation for medical negligence is never easy. You should expect some form of resistance from the healthcare provider or facility or even their insurance carrier. Speaking of insurance providers, they usually care more about limiting liability, and that is where we come in to fight for the injured and ensure that they receive the compensation they are entitled to.
So, if you or a loved one has been injured due to medical malpractice, please contact us today. We will review your case for free and with no obligations.

What Amounts to Medical Malpractice?
Medical malpractice is the legal term for a situation where a qualified healthcare provider fails to provide the accepted standard of care when treating their patients, resulting in harm, injury, or even death of that patient.
Who Can Be Liable for Medical Malpractice?
Anyone responsible for the injury or death of a patient due to negligence while providing healthcare may be liable for medical malpractice. This could include a nurse, a surgeon, a doctor, or even the medical facility where the patient received treatment before their death.
What Damages Are Available for Victims of Malpractice?
In most cases, plaintiffs may be able to recover compensatory damages, which include medical expenses and lost income. Other damages that might be available for medical malpractice victims include:
- Pain and suffering emotional distress.
- The loss of quality of life.
- Loss of consortium.
In cases where the judge or jury rules that the medical provider or facility was extremely negligent, Montana laws allow the court to award the plaintiff punitive damages not exceeding $10 million or 3% of the defendant's net worth (whichever amount is less).
What Happens When Someone Dies Due to Medical Malpractice?
The survivors of the deceased may be awarded wrongful death damages and compensation for funeral and burial expenses. If applicable, they may also be entitled to compensation for the loss of financial support and companionship their loved one would have provided had they been alive.
